Complete Bathroom Renovations
For Toronto Homes

The Types Of Bathrooms We Remodel In Toronto

We remodel every bathroom type, from a two-piece powder room to a master ensuite. The bathroom renovations Toronto homeowners ask us for fall into a few categories. These are the bathroom renovation projects we take on most often:

• Full bathrooms and master ensuites. A full bathroom renovation replaces everything — tub or shower, toilet, vanity, tile, lighting and often the plumbing behind them. Ensuite work is where homeowners chase the dream bathroom: double bathroom vanities, custom cabinetry, a freestanding tub, frameless glass and heated floors. It is a complete renovation, so budget accordingly.
• Walk-in and curbless showers. Of all the bathroom renovations Toronto homeowners plan, walk-in and curbless showers are the most requested. We build tiled walk-ins with glass enclosures, convert an unused tub into a new shower, and pour curbless showers over a recessed, waterproofed floor sloped to a linear drain.
• Powder rooms and partial renovations. A powder room refresh — new vanity, toilet, tile and lighting — is the fastest way to update the bathroom your guests see. We also take on partial renovations, such as replacing only the shower or swapping a builder-grade vanity, when the rest is sound.
• Family and kids’ bathrooms. A combined shower and tub keeps bathing practical for young children without giving up a functional bathroom design.

What Changes When You Renovate A Condo Bathroom

Condo bathroom renovations follow different rules than house projects, and ignoring them is the fastest way to have your bathroom renovation shut down mid-demolition. Kitchen & Bath handles the paperwork before work begins. Here is what a condo bathroom project involves that a house does not:

• Board approval. Most Toronto condo corporations require a bathroom renovation application with drawings, a contractor’s certificate of insurance naming the corporation (commonly $2 million liability) and WSIB clearance. We prepare and submit this package for you.
• Elevator bookings. Demolition debris, tile and the new bathroom fixtures all move through one padded service elevator. We handle the elevator booking in advance around delivery dates, so materials arrive when the crew needs them.
• Working hours. Buildings typically restrict noisy work to weekday business hours. We plan the loud phases — demolition, tile cutting — inside those windows so the bathroom renovation schedule stays realistic.
• Shared plumbing stacks. Condo drains tie into shared vertical stacks that cannot move, so your toilet and drains stay put and condo layouts change less than house layouts. A stack water shut-off must be booked with management, sometimes weeks ahead.

Because our crews are in-house and insured, producing the documents a property manager asks for takes days, not weeks — a real advantage for any condo renovation.

A Clear Breakdown Of Bathroom Renovation Costs

Most bathroom renovation costs in Toronto land between roughly $5,900 and $14,800, with an average around $10,200 — but the honest answer is that scope drives everything. Here is how the main bathroom project tiers compare:

Structural changes sit at the high end of the cost ladder. Removing a wall to enlarge the bathroom, resizing a window or borrowing space from a closet may need engineering and a building permit ($1,500–$3,000, 4–8 weeks) — the same structural work we handle in larger projects every month.

Water-Saving And Eco-Friendly Bathroom Upgrades

A bathroom is the most water- and energy-hungry room in the house, which makes a renovation the easiest moment to build in savings. We fold efficiency into the fixtures and finishes we install, so your new bathroom is gentler on your utility bills and the environment without feeling like a compromise:

• Low-flow, WaterSense-style fixtures. Modern low-flow Kohler and Grohe toilets, faucets, and showerheads cut water use sharply against older fixtures, without the weak trickle the early low-flow models were known for. A dual-flush toilet alone can save thousands of litres a year.
• Efficient lighting and ventilation. LED pot lights and lit mirrors draw a fraction of the power of older fixtures, and a right-sized, energy-efficient exhaust fan clears moisture faster — protecting both your finishes and your air quality.
• Durable, lower-impact materials. Porcelain tile and quartz surfaces from Cambria or Caesarstone last for decades, so the greenest bathroom is one you are not tearing out and sending to landfill in ten years.
• Comfort that saves energy. An electric heated floor on a programmable thermostat warms the room only when you need it, and better insulation on exterior walls keeps the heat where it belongs.

From First Measurement To The Final Fixture

Every bathroom renovation in Toronto that we take on follows the same eight steps, whether it is a compact powder room or a complete bathroom remodel of a master ensuite:

1. Initial consultation. A free consultation at your home or our Vaughan showroom. We measure the bathroom, discuss the bathroom design you want and flag anything unusual — old plumbing, condo rules, structural questions.
2. Design. Our in-house designers produce drawings and material selections for your dream bathroom. Try layouts and finishes with our online bathroom visualizer.
3. Detailed quote. A written, itemized price for the full bathroom renovation — upfront pricing on every fixture and finish, plus flexible financing if you want it.
4. Demolition. Floors and walkways protected, old fixtures and tile out, dust contained.
5. Plumbing and electrical rough-in. Licensed trades run supply lines, drains and wiring for the new bathroom layout — including any grab-bar blocking — inspected before anything is covered.
6. Tiling and waterproofing. The waterproofing membrane goes on first, then floor tiles and wall tile.
7. Fixture installation. Vanity, toilet, shower glass, hardware, lighting and the electrical fixtures all go in — the stage where the new bathroom finally looks like the drawings.
8. Final walkthrough. You inspect every detail of the finished bathroom with your project manager, and we register your written workmanship warranty.

One of our project managers oversees your bathroom renovation daily and sends progress updates, so you are never guessing which trade shows up tomorrow. That single point of contact is what makes a bathroom renovation in Toronto feel managed, not chaotic.

Frequently Asked Questions:

How long does a small bathroom renovation take in Toronto?

A complete small bathroom remodel takes about 23 working days — roughly four to five weeks excluding weekends. Demolition and rough-in fill the first week, waterproofing and tiling the second and third, and fixture installation and finishing the rest. Custom features like heated floors or a curbless shower can add several days to any bathroom renovation project.

What is different about renovating a condo bathroom versus a house?

A condo bathroom remodel adds board approval, insurance paperwork, a service-elevator booking and restricted working hours, and shared plumbing stacks limit how far fixtures can move. The construction is similar, but the schedule depends on building management cooperation. We handle all condo documentation up front, so approvals rarely delay the bathroom renovation.

Do I need a permit for a bathroom renovation in Toronto?

A like-for-like bathroom remodel — new fixtures in the same existing layout — usually needs no permit. You do need one for structural changes, moving or adding plumbing, or altering ventilation, and condos need board approval as well. We confirm requirements for your project scope and pull any permits ourselves, typically $1,500–$3,000 over four to eight weeks.

How long will I be without a working shower?

For a complete bathroom renovation, plan on three to five weeks without it. If it is your only bathroom, we can sometimes stage the renovation project or get the new shower operational sooner; many clients use an ensuite, a gym or a neighbour’s washroom for the gap. We flag the exact dates before demolition.

What warranty do you offer on bathroom renovations?

Every bathroom remodel comes with a written workmanship warranty covering our installation — tiling, plumbing connections, electrical work and carpentry. Manufacturer warranties on fixtures and materials apply in addition to it. Because our trades are in-house rather than subcontracted, there is never a dispute about who stands behind the quality work: we do.
